Call Me Saffron by Talia Quinn Review

 

Call Me Saffron

Greenpoint Pleasures Series Book One

By: Talia Quinn

Releasing June 9^th, 2014

 

Samantha Lilly is in a long-term relationship… with her vibrator. She can’t handle a serious commitment, but casual affairs don’t do it for her either. So she’s resigned herself to being alone.

Her call-girl roommate Jeanine has other ideas. She persuades Samantha to take her place for one night with Dylan Krause, an incredibly hot prospective client recovering from a messy divorce. She says it’ll be good for Samantha to be with someone without her usual expectations and complications. 

It’s more than good. It’s intense, extraordinary, and emotionally devastating. During their long, intimate night together, they bare, not just their bodies, but their souls. 

But after that one amazing night, Samantha flees. This feels too real for her. And yet she can’t forget Dylan, even though she tries. 

Then one day, he walks into the architecture firm where she works. Seeing him threatens to destroy the careful walls she’s built around her heart—and this time she can’t run away.  

WOW! I was blown away by this book. The characters were complex and came to life in front of my eyes. I LOVE Samantha aka Saffron and all her craziness and heartbreak. Dylan is an amazing complex character. I could read about this couple all day, in fact I kept preying that the book wouldn't end. I am defiantly a fan of the Greenpoint Pleasure series now.

So we begin this book with Samantha turning down a date with Randy the hunk from her office. Why? You ask. Well it’s because Samantha doesn't date, but she misses sex. When she gets some to her apartment, she finds her roommate Jeanine sick in bed. Jeanine is a high priced call girl and tonight she has a new client, a client that she doesn't want to cancel...so she convinces Samantha to do it in her stead. I don't want to spoil it for you, so I won't go any further

This amazing book has literally made me giggle and laugh all weekend, so for that reason alone it earns 10 out of 10.

Flaunt it. Be your sexiest self. He has no idea who you are in real life. You will never see him again. 

I let the coat slip out of my fingers and pool onto the floor in an elegantly careless heap. 

Dylan stared at me, openly appreciative. 

So pure, this transaction. So simple. So insane.  

“Like what you see?” I made my voice sultry, like Mae West or what I imagined Jeanine to be like with a client. A mistake, because I immediately giggled at the absurdity. 

Dylan raised his eyebrows. “Is this a joke to you?”

I walked over to him, a trifle unsteady on my stiletto boots, and pressed my hand against those damp curls on his chest. “No joke, Dylan Krause. Hardly a joke.” I could feel his heart thump under my palm, nearly as fast as my own. “So? Do you want me to stay? Or do I refund your money?” 

He was startled into a laugh. “Blunt. I like that.”

“Good, because that’s what you get.”  

“You’re not what I expected.” His gaze traveled over my body. I felt it like a caress. 

I took another step, so close now, and ran my hand through his damp hair, enjoying the way it sprang against my fingers, a live thing. Enjoying the fact that I could do this. “What do you want to do first?”

“Who are you, Saffron?” He was looking at me with a strangely intent gaze. 

And here Jeanine had assured me he wouldn’t want to talk.
